Would like to get some thoughts. I am thinking of purchasing this TV stand (link below) to convert into a viv for my beardie. At $74.00 shipped, it isn't much more than if I was to build my own 4x2x2 and this one looks nicer than the one I could probably make.
Dimensions: 43.465"W x 24.094"D x 21.417"H

If I am correct, I could make this work by:
Putting a real wood backing (already have the wood)
Gutting the inside
Adding Glass Doors and runners
Adding side and rear vents
Mount light fixtures
Silicone the creases
Can i get away with not sealing the wood on this type of unit? I would be covering the bottom in tile and the sides/back with a full rock deal using the foam and grout.
Any thoughts on this idea? I'm thinking I should be able to do the entire thing for under $200. Does that seem reasonable?
